... Mrs B tagged me for this Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? game. It's an original Mrs B invention. Here are the rules:

The game is called "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner"?

Three Bloggers are tagged and must post on their blog these directions and list the names of 6 of their favorite renowned Knitters whom they would invite to dinner and their reasons why.Then the Bloggers play it forward by INVITING 3 new Bloggers play the game and name their Fantastic 6 for dinner. And so on.

What Mrs B probably doesn't realize is that I'm such a newbie knitter that I have an extremely modest collection of books by the famous published knitters and haven't yet acquainted myself with many of them. My shelf looks nothing like hers; I only have 4 knitting books :-( , maybe 5 if you count the 2006 Pattern-a-Day calendar. So this is going to be quite a challenge for me -- not knowing much about who's who in the knitting community -- to pull 6 names out of my knitting bag. Well, here goes...

... but Nicky Epstein, Ann Budd, Elizabeth Zimmermann, and all my Elann friends/designers are also going to crash the dinner party too. :-)

Well, whadya think? Is it gonna be a lively party? Or a bore? Does it give you any clues on where my true interests lie?

I'm not going to tag specific people cuz they may not want to play (and I know some people who refuse to participate in these things), so I'll leave it open to anyone who wants to play. Just leave me a comment with your blog addy so I can come visit and see who you would want to invite to dinner...

1 stitch(es):

I imagine Barbara must get invited to alot of soirees! Good list. I received the lace book for Christmas from one of my knitting amigas and it is fantastic! I have my yarns all ready to cast on but have so many other projects (all for others!) to finish first!

*** I am not a professional pattern writer and do not have test knitters. I make every effort to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the instructions, however human error and typos do happen. I do try to correct errors/typos as soon as I discover them. I am not very good at writing up patterns and am am still learning how to improve on it. Despite this, I still enjoy sharing what I have done to knit something up; it is my way of giving back to the "knitting community" from whom I have learned so much in these past 3 years of knitting.
